On the road with an IT Pro: Sydney Australia

By jmgarvin<br /><br />Sydney Australia

Fellow TechRepublic member and information technology professional jmgarvin has to travel often for his company. Sometimes he goes to a place that most would consider interesting. One recent trip took him to Sydney Australia. He sent along these photos for us to enjoy.

And while we are talking travel, the next time you go somewhere interesting as part of your life as an IT Pro, take some photos and pass them on to us (send an e-mail to mark.kaelin@cnet.com with Travel Log in the subject line) with some information about where you went, why you were there, and what you did while you were there. Did you find a great restaurant, a fantastic hotel that you want to recommend -- we all have to travel from time to time, so share your experiences and give your peers a heads up.

Sydney Australia

Now, don't get me wrong - this is some fine photography indeed but I feel just a scosh mislead. Tech Republic - I was thinking oooOOoooOOO someone went and took some Techy pictures in Australia. But alas, aside from the scenic views, dissapointment. I expected to see more... em... how shall I put this... technology? First girth now this. Dissapoint is rampant.

I was just across the harbour (there, you happy? :-P ) in North Sydney. I went to the Blue Mountains, Bondi Beach, and I got to wander around the "old" Olympic Park.
The sad part was that since I was working, I didn't have much of a chance to get out and about to other areas.

my dad was born in New Zealand in a place called Ohingaiti (Said as "oh a nighty".
Other places there are Kaukopakopa and Urutiti (Which had a nudist beach between a rubbish dump and a christian youth camp)

Only the U.S. drops the "U" in words, colour, behaviour, etc., all other English speaking countries insert and use the original spelling with the "U". Yes and please get TR to edit Sidney to the proper spelling, it is Sydney with a Y, a place name that should not be phonetically spelled.

With my brand spanking new camera, I'm starting to take pictures where ever I go.
